I would feel a whole lot better about being asked to donate to someone's legal defense if some kind of credible person was doing the asking. Its not about whether he is truthful or not, there is just no way to judge a more or less anonymous poster's credibility, especially when he is a relative of the defendant.
I have donated to several such cases, but its always been when someone I personally considered credible had taken a look at the situation and reported it was a worthy cause.
